14 March, Thursday was the day of lecture of week nine. During this week lecture we gathered knowledge about Arab Spring.

The last lecture on week 9 was more likely an analytical implementation on different Middle East country revolutions.
We had been showed four speeches about different concept of Arab Spring. Among all the four I liked the first speech that was delivered by Dalia Mogahed on “Attitude that sparked Arab Spring.” The main reason that attracted me was sophisticated analysis without biasness. She provided some statistics that were evidence for her speech. Another speech that I liked was about “Why Libya’s revolution did not work and what might?” delivered by Zahra Langhi because she provided very realistic reasons for the failure along with suggestion. Other speeches were also well structured and informative.
